This idea originated initially by someone who started the petition as indicated above , some folks on UKV (UK Vapers) started the idea of window displays , car stickers,flyers, etc IT DOESN'T matter WHAT forum we belong to but think about contributing to this - it can be as much/little as you can spare ITS A NON-COMMERCIAL RAN so no Vendor logos allowed BUT any vendor naturally can contribute . The sooner any information that can be got out there to counter the nonsense we see on a daily basis the better . Just leave that Fasttech order a wee bit longer and contribute something VIA Pay-Pal to ecigssavelives@hotmail.co.uk This is in ALL of our interests Can I ask a linking expert to link to the relevant UKV page . Can I also ask if anyone who belongs to other forums to write out a similar appeal if they believe this may help our current cause Edit by Chrissie - Link to ecigssaveslives ecigssavelives.co.uk/
And link to thread on UKV - ukvapers.org/Thread-DONATIONS-CAR-STICKERS-DONATIONS

gibla53 nice one mate I've just popped back over to see if anyone had done it. Can I also just add there are quite a few members across across all the forums who do not like the term E-Cigs but unfortunately it is the name that has became en-grained in the public consciousness, while they may not have a flippin clue what vaping is (me included till I joined the forum) most people have heard of E-cigs . . . so love or hate the term please don't let that put you off donating. If you haven't read the original thread on UKV the whole purpose is to raise public awareness & get the message en-grained in folks minds, just as the "Smoking Kills" message on ciggie packets became accepted hopefully so will this

kudos roscopecotrain I have just had an idiots guide to linking on another forum , shows the drawbacks of being senile and totally self-taught . Never needed to link before this current nonsense , anyway thanks again. Also realised that linking was totally impossible with my trackpad on the lappy so mouse refound and lo and behold slowly getting the hang of it

I agree its a shame the term e-cigarette was ever used initially as joe public instantly connect wrongly with the tobacco sort profesional writers ,web designers etc are giving up their time ( cos they are vapers) to help) so what can WE bring to the party ? Moral and Financial Support so totally agree with you 4madcats

We could do a link to the page. But I would like to add, we have got a design for a window sticker at the designers already, hopefully get it by 5pm tomorrow. We will then be able to distribute these by the weeks end.
I will get the UKV rep to speak to the OP ( who appears to have abandoned ship) and see if we can put it onto our forum and link it out from there. ECCA are very reluctant to post links to external sources (where possible) as it doesn't appear official if we start posting random links, if that makes sense.
£400 in an hour, that is great stuff, I do hope this goes forward, but even if it doesn't we will have ours available at weeks end (hopefully).

Please don't take this as a criticism but your mention of "ours" needs to be looked at DON'T be suspicious of a fund that is helping to fight a common cause . The petition and suchlike will stall unless we can get far more people involved and informed .

But reading back, it has sounded a little negative. I will look at getting the link on the forum, and therefor twitter and FB. I look forward to seeing the final design, and seeing it plastered on cars all over the UK and perhaps Europe
